January Delegation to Israel and Palestine – Sponsored by the Presbyterian Peace Fellowship

The Presbyterian Peace Fellowship is sponsoring a delegation lead by Rick Ufford-Chase to Israel and Palestine. We have received a grant that will pay more than half the cost of the trip for each person!

When: January 3 to 17, 2014

Who: Young adults encouraged to apply!
Presbyterians who can attend the General Assembly
in June, 2014 will be given preference – but all are
encouraged to apply.

Why: This trip is focused on shifting the witness of
the Presbyterian Church – and other denominations
– to encourage direct action that will end the
occupation and create a situation of peace and
security for all Israelis and Palestinians.

Cost: $3,700 including airfare (Scholarships of up to
half the cost are available.)

About AricClark

Aric discovered he is religious and not spiritual in a Chan Buddhist monastery in Taiwan. These days he inflicts that religion on audiences and congregations who bring him out from his home in Portland, Oregon. He does this while fathering two wild heathens, writing everything but this week’s sermon, speaking in front of crowds large and small who fail to properly vet his credentials, and husbanding the amazing Stacia Ann. He is a world-class Game Master, a pacifist, an over-activist, and a number 8 on the Enneagram. His influences include James Alison, Pomplamoose, Pema Chodron, Iain M. Banks, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stephen R. Donaldson, Chipotle chicken burritos, John Howard Yoder, Cowboy Bebop, and the highland bagpipes. He still cannot grow a beard.
